190809.1 | Tom Tromey | Standardize DW_AT_GNU_bias | Enhancement | Open |
Section 5.13, pg 129 In Ada, a scalar can be given a biased representation in some cases. For example, a scalar with a range of -7..-4 could be stored using 2 bits with a bias of -7. GCC implements the DW_AT_GNU_bias extension to handle this case. See https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/DW_AT_GNU_bias I think it would be good to standardize this.
